Comment on It's never been about helping people

Permanently house and feed someone? $16,000 seems quite a bit too low. That might cover food alone I would imagine, depending on the person’s age. More so if it’s like a 30 year old less so if they are 60.

Checked for France, cost goes between 12k€ to 17k€ per year. It works includes housing, food, management.

  Yes that is annually but post says “permanently” which I take to mean for multiple years not annually.

It’s more like it costs more money than that to allow someone to be homeless, since they’ll be more likely to use emergency services and such

  Yeah $16k annually sounds about right. But they say “permanently” which I read as $16k total not annually.
